Robert De Niro's 3-month-old daughter has officially made her first-ever TV appearance!
The film star's baby girl—whom he welcomed with Tiffany Chen back in April—made a special cameo on CBS Mornings on Friday, July 13, as her mom sat down with Gayle King to talk about life since giving birth to the little one, named Gia Virginia.
During the interview, Chen, 45, showed off some precious photos of the new baby, including one snap of Gia cuddling up to dad De Niro, 79.
King also got to visit their home to meet Gia in person, where she excitedly told the infant, "You're making your TV debut!"
"What's your favorite Robert De Niro movie," King, 68, then asked Gia, while Chen chimed in to say, "The one in the delivery room, where I'm the star!"
Soon after giving birth to her daughter with partner Robert De Niro, Tiffany Chen lost all movement in her face — and an MRI revealed she had Bell’s palsy.

During her chat with King, Chen told the TV personality all about her experience with pregnancy and giving birth—which was shortly followed by a scary incident where the new mom lost all movement in her face.
"Right after delivering, I noticed I was getting a sharp pain behind my left ear," she explained to King, adding that it wasn't until she took a shower that she noticed herself looking different in the mirror.
"A week after giving birth, that was when it all hit," she added, explaining that she was instructed to go straight back to the hospital, where she was admitted. "I lost all facial function the minute I got into the hospital."
After getting an MRI, Chen was diagnosed with Bell's palsy, which she said she has been treating mostly with acupuncture.
Chen then revealed that she hopes to share her story to show others that the condition is nothing to be ashamed of.
"It shouldn't be kept so private that people lock themselves in their homes," she stated. "Women should not feel hurt by it, ashamed by it, or just scarred by it."
